I am not happy! This is the 3rd time I am writing this blog. The first I could not find. I wrote the second. Just before posting the 3rd, the second shows up! From where? So I erased it, i am writing it again.

I apologize those who follow me. I am sorry for 2 blogs for the 4th. I wasn’t sure what to do? I could delete one, combine them or leave it. I left both and laughed. Of course when it happened on the 5th it was no longer funny.

I am also having trouble with pictures. Today we had fun. We went to a recommended restaurant Shady Maple Buffet. WOW! It was gigantic largest in USA. The inside was beautiful, chandeliers everywhere, ballrooms everywhere. So food? OMG! Everyday they have a special. A friend of ours told use to go on Prime Rib Beef night. The portions are huge. I had one slice, he had 2. Rare it was yummo! I tried a Delmonico Steak delicious! But wait, they had other main meats, brisket, ham. Then come the area where you pick and serve. The salad bar had 45 items it went on forever. There were veggies oh and potatoes in any form you can think of sweet, baked, fries, creamed. Then desserts look out! Every kind of pie, apples in so many versions, puddings. It was insane. Oh of course pizza and burgers. Then a condiment table that was huge!

Dessert plates!

Then they had a downstairs gift dept. It was enormous! It had glass cases for miles. They even had my Buyers dolls. The ones behind glass in my dining room. Wood carvings that were spectacular. It was amazing to see. I dragged myself up the stairs and went outside. Down the hill there’s a gigantic farmers market and another bldg. It’s a city. If you around you must go!

Then there was the ride to the place. We went local not hywy. The homes were gigantic 4 stories tall. They weren’t the same and old some 200 yrs. The brick and stone were beautiful. Then they all had additions you can see down the side and were enormous. There were no huge stores like Walmart. Little shops of every kind along the street. In the houses were some of the business.

it was quite the day. I couldn’t move and on the way home it rained but seriously when we got back.

I took lots of pictures. I’m in my frustration point I forgot how you move them from phone to ipad. I know your thinking I have had this issue before. My head is hanging in embarrassment. I’m not a techy person. But, I promise i will add them and figure it out.

I gotta luv y’all for continuing to read my blog. It does my heart good to know your out there. They run statistics on how many people follow, or read my blog. I don’t know that many people.

Stay cool and enjoy! I promise I will add pictures!

    Shady Maple Buffet sounds impressive! But with all the great meals you make, I’m surprised you eat out. You could start a cooking show and just photograph your dinners. I’m sure you’d get an audience! Title it “Cooking while Traveling” or some such name.

    Went to a big (filled the Grand Haven Room) presentation on CPR, the Heimlich maneuver, and how to use the electric pads to restart the heart. Lots of Grand Haven residents attended. Worthwhile info but I hope I never have to use it.
